Communication. It plays a huge role, arguably the largest, in modern society. Whether it is through speaking, writing or even through sign language, we all have ways to get our point across. However, communication encounters a whole new set of obstacles when a child with a mental disability has something to say. I know how to interact with people who have special needs or mental retardation. My mother is a counselor who works with mentally disabled people so. I have been raised with a sensitivity and a knowledge for mental disabilities. I know that working with such individuals takes patience. But most of all it simply takes kindness.I work in the young child care ministry at my church. There is a little boy named Jeremiah who attends every Sunday. He has special needs and I work with him often, acting a little as his escort. His speech is difficult todiscern and his actions sometimes inexplicable. I know he is not at fault for his violence and tantrums, so we are lovingly firm when it comes to calming him down.When he wants to play on the swing set, Iishow him how we have to wait our turn and when he wants water or a snack instruct him to say please and thank you. I am with him until his mother arrives to pick him up.Diego is three years old and has a whole lot of life to live. the fact that he is mentally challenged should not, and will not hinder him from fulfilling his dreams and achieving his goals. people of today should embrace our community of mentally challenged individuals instead of shying away. The important first steps have already been taken; now we just need to follow in the footsteps. Where should Brandon be charged On February 12, 2008 Larry king was shot. During English in the computer lab. When seeing the facts thourghly it wasn’t because Larry was gay but there is more behind the whole story. I believe that everyone has a part to the to the shooting but still Brandon is most to blame I believe Everyone has their part in the shooting for example; Mrs. Epstein should of told Larry that he has the freedom to dress how he wanted but not to be sexually harassing people, Larry should have been less flamboyant with the other guys. Society also has a blame, if someone is to blame it George bush first to blame for putting united states in the crisis where in. because of the economic crisis we are in the school don’t have money to buy metal detector or at least more security guards. Should a kid 14 years of age be with the adult court. I think Brandon even though he killed Larry king. Should be in the juvenile court. He had a tough life dad a drunky who shots his mom a meth addicted in the arm this is no way of living. As you can see this is why I think that everyone has their part to this whole incident it wasn’t only Brandon’s fault, but Mrs. Epistion, society, Larry king, and Brandon’s parents. Brandon is just a kid at the time so look at him when he was a kid not how he is know Brandon Mcinnery trial On febuaury 12,2008 commonly conjures up visions of hearts and cherry lollipops and wonderful soul warming valentine cards. However, no longer will this be true in the hearts of those close to young Larry King who was shot and killed by fellow classmate Brandon McInnery in that fateful February of 2008.While some take a quick glance at the hard facts and hastily jump to conclusions, if examined further, the details show that a large portion of the blame can be justifiably placed on Larry. Larry was different. Everyone and their mother knew that and could sense it from a mile away. He drew attention to himself with the wearing of stiletto heels, make up, and openly showing affection toward other males. While this caused uneasiness among the rest of the eighth grade population atE.O.Green Middle School, there simply was nothing that the staff could do to dim Larry’s flamboyancy. To state that he pushed the limits would be quite the understatement. He sexually harassed Brandonand used his sexual orientation as a weapon. This unfair use of gay remarks and gestures fueled Brandon’s anger leading him to the only kind of solution he knew. An immediate cause for Brandon’s impulsive behavior is the fact that Larry openly humiliated him in front of his peers. Larry, on a dare, strolled up to Brandon and inquired if he would be his valentine. As the ill-humored comments began to rain down on Brandon, he himself became the victim. Darkness overcame him and violent instincts took over. Some may rebut that Brandon had no right to shoot and kill Larry. While there is no way to ever justify his murder, there are absolute facts that tell of Brandon’s poor upbringing. His father, a drunk and violent wife beater took a shot at his meth addicted mother ten years prior, It is not Brandon’s fault that all he knows is violence. It’s how he was raised. Clearly, main facts and headlines only tell a small part of the overall story. Further examination of the details is imperative in forming a viable conclusion as to where the blame should be placed. It is evident that Larry King, though undeserving of this awful fate, brought upon him self the ridicule and negativity dished out by his peers. So when it comes down to appointing faults, it is necessary to observe just what kids have witnessed in their lifetime and how it can all lead to foul play. 30 By 30 1.Graduate high school 2.Invent facespace or mybook 3.Swim with dolphins 4.Go to Amsterdam 5.Graduate college 6.Get masters for architect 7.Coach a soccer team 8.Donate blood 9.Win the lottery 10.Knock out mayweather 11.Own the playboy manchin 12.Own a yacht 13.Own a Audi rsq 14.Live in Mexico for 1 year 15.Visit brazil 16.Skydive 17.Travel to Rome 18.Build the world fastest, longest, highest, flying roller coaster 19.Hang-glide 20.Fall in love with the perfect girl 21.Own a german shepard 22.Own a 5 star hotel/helicopter 23.Get married have 4 kids 24.Travel to Mexico with family 25.Go see the Olympics with family 26.Watch the kids grow up 27Got to the wedding 28.Make homes for poor people 29.Donate organs 30.Be done with this
Susan Sontag
While Susan Sontag makes a compelling argument in support of text over images, her points and opinions are solely hers and uphold only one side of the situation. There are strong rebuttals that could be made supporting images, however there is no argument for either side strong enough to exceed the fact that we need both to understand the world completely. Photos and words go hand in hand; by themselves they only tell half of the story. Sontag states, “Photography implies that we know about the world if we accept it as the camera records it. But this is the opposite of understanding…” While we cannot learn everything from a photo, the image does give a visual. It provides a clearer understanding than words could do alone. Pictures have captions for a reason. Text and images together complete the story. Another argument that Sontag makes is that images have eroded our society in that people have become “image-junkies” and that “it is the most irresistible for of mental pollution.” I disagree with her claims. While the media does nibble at our society’s intelligence, pictures and images work in our favor. Harper Lee’s ‘To Kill A Mockingbird” tells a captivating story of a young girl and her family. But more importantly, it shos poverty and the conditions of the 1930’s. However, no matter how much explaining and how many details Lee wrote down, the images in the movie brought it to all life. Photographs can bring about emotions that words simply cannot. They show the reality of life and emotionally connect the viewer to situation in the picture. It makes a point of saying that “this is real. This person, this situation, it’s real. It happened.” Images are the oldest and simplest form of communication and therefore should be embraced, rather than kicked to the side like some primitive nonsense. Once text came into existence, our understanding of the world only grew deeper. It didn’t just begin there. Images were already sharing half of the story. Words brought about the other piece. Jacob Riis realized this and did something about it. Through photography and text he shocked the world with the horrifying realit of the New York slums in a book called “How The Other Half Lives”. Words were not enough to convey the message that needed to be shared. Photographs depicted the sad eyes of the children forced to work in factories, and the mothers trying to nurse their babies back to health in an attempt to alter their inevitable fate. This is why images and text belong together. Neither can create understanding by themselves. It is clear that although words can explain a lot more than an image, without the photograph, true understanding cannot be produced. A heart-wrenching photograph can take quite a toll on a person, but the words that go with it just may end up making the difference.
Marriage in society Marriage is a very big part of society and a result of love. However, I inquire if modern marriages are really based on the right concepts or if a traditional arranged marriage system is what this society needs. I believe that both are beneficial and should be used together in picking a lifelong mate. In an arranged marriage the parents choose the spouse. While they may not be clear on what their child wants in a spouse romantically or physically, they do know what is best for them. They use their wisdom and knowledge to choose a compatible, financially stable, and potentially successful partner. Thinking with the head can lead to a lasting marriage, a healthy family, and a stable household. On the other hand, marriage should have passion and romance. This is where the heart comes into play. While thinking rationally about what you want in a mate can lead to a long marriage, thinking passionately can lead to a very happy one. Listening to one’s heart can bring about a very loving relationship and a peaceful and enjoyable marriageWhile using your head to choose a mate and using your heart both bring about potentially swell marriages, using the two together is the best idea in my opinion. To make a long-lasting and happy marriage, one needs to think both rationally and passionately or the marriage will not work. Benjamin Franklin put it best when he stated, “Where there is marriage without love, there will be love without marriage.” Choosing a lifelong partner requires more than just the head or just the heart; it takes both to get the job done right. Clearly, marriage should be a thought-out, well considered, permanent plan. It is not something done on a crazy whim or a spur of the moment decision, but it also is not something that should be forced upon someone. Both love and wisdom have a part in choosing what is right for everyone. What Is Love? Is love chemical? It is, this is true to some extent. Yes, everything we feel is chemical, but is that all? No, it’s not. There are other things involved. I believe that love is not mainly a chemical reaction. According to evolutionary anthropology we are attracted to certain people for certain reasons. Men are attracted to women with large breasts and wide hips because it is a symbol of fertility and that she can provide him with healthy offspring. Women are attracted to a man with shapely muscles and a strong jaw because it means that he can protect her and her young. For thousands of years these “rules” have been in practice and they still influence us today. When we are in our puberty and high school stages of our lives, we are all raging with hormones. Men mainly have testosterone and women mainly have estrogen, but we each have both. Teens are in a critical state at this time. They are confused, and don’t know what to do with themselves. When we are in a new/ “short-term” relationship, at any age, some new drugs come into play. The new drugs are called dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. These drugs cause the good feelings you get when you are with that person you love, like a high. When you are not with that person you feel bad, like after the high. When you are in a long term relationship the drug that comes in the game is oxytocin. This drug is called the “bonding drug”, the same thing is in breast milk so that a new born baby can bond with its mother. This drug will keep you at a sense of well being. What about love? Love is a beautiful thing that everyone wants to experience at least once. Love is a lot more than just chemicals floating around in our brains. Love is pain, happiness, sorrow. Love is so, so much more that chemicals. It’s just too hard to explain. I mean look at Romeo & Juliet, they died for each other’s love. Why do we get married? Why did Dante and Petrarch dedicated their lives to writing beautiful poetry to women they never touched, made love to, or even met? Because love makes people do crazy things. In conclusion, love is just love. There are many chemical in the role of love. That doesn’t mean that it’s all chemical and it’s not. I believe that love is not mainly a chemical reaction. I believe love is just that, and there’s nothing we can do about it.
